Third Party Interference: Imad Wasim's Wife Reveals Reason Behind Divorce

Recently, Pakistani cricketer, Imad Wasim publicly announced that he has filed a divorce from wife Sannia Ashfaq.

Wasim took to Instagram and shared a post stating that after incessant rifts in the past few years that couldn't be resolved, the step was taken. He also mentioned that he will continue to fully take responsibility for his children and prompted people to not believe in fabricated information.

"After much thought, and due to repeated conflicts that could not be resolved over the past few years, I have filed for divorce. Regarding the children, I remain their father and will continue to care for them fully and responsibly. Thank you for your understanding and respect. I request everyone not to engage in or believe any misleading narratives. Any attempt to defame or involve others in this personal matter will be addressed through the proper legal channels if necessary," the 38-year-old all-rounder wrote.

"Regarding the children, I remain their father and will continue to care for them fully and responsibly," he added.

A few hours later, Sannia Ashfaq also took to Instagram and shared an emotional statement claiming that there was third party interference that led to the dissolution of their marriage.

Ashfaq wrote, "I am writing this from a place of deep pain. My home has been broken, and my children have been left without their father. I am a mother of three, including a five-month-old infant who has yet to be held by his father. This is not a story I wished to share, but silence should never be mistaken for weakness."

"Like many marriages, ours had difficulties, yet it continued to exist. I remained committed as a wife and mother and made sincere efforts to preserve our family. What ultimately ended this marriage was the involvement of a third party, whose intention was to marry my husband, which became the final blow to an already struggling union," she mentioned further.

Imad Wasim and Sannia Ashfaq tied the knot in a star-studded wedding in August 2019, in Islamabad. The couple are parents to the three children together.

On the professional front, Imad Wasim announced his international retirement for the second time in December 2024, having earlier reversed his decision to return for the T20 World Cup 2024, where he featured in three matches.

Over his career, he represented Pakistan in 55 ODIs and 75 T20Is, scoring a total of 1,540 runs, including six half-centuries.
